Origin of the concept

A definition

Flipped Learning is a pedagogical approach in which direct instruction moves from the group learning space to the individual learning space, and the resulting group space is transformed into a dynamic, interactive learning environment where the educator guides students as they apply concepts and engage creatively in the subject matter.Source

Useful websites and online tools

Concept which allows teachers to share resources with their pupils and to collaborate easily with teachers from umpteen countries,

which gives the students an opportunity to study at their pace, to study differently depending on their learning styles (different types of resources are offered),

which permits them to work in groups and help each other, build their own learning and go further than they would have in a traditional class.

Homework vs. classwork

HOMEWORK SCHOOLWORK

Studying 5 texts/videos in groups of 4 students maximum (reading and listening skills) while making notes.Different documents leads to information gap in class.

Sharing information on a topic (each group gives a short talk), the peers ask questions/interact.Alternately, each group can write a short article on Fodey (speaking, writing skills).

20

Homework vs. classwork

HOMEWORK CLASSWORK

Studying a video (Ted Ed video for instance) with varied tasks to complete before class.

Discussing the answers and debating about the video. Explaining whatwas not understood.Going further.

21

Homework vs. classwork

Asking students to revise a specific grammar question (the passive for instance before studying the Black Civil Rights Movement).

Having the students create a short play in groups using the passive voice.
